FlexMR is proud to announce that its CEO, Paul Hudson, has been selected as one of the prestigious members of the Insight250 2024 cohort, being recognised as one of the leaders of the insight, market research and data industries for the second year running.
The first time Paul won this accolade, he had celebrated his 25th anniversary in the insights industry, with many of those years dedicated to FlexMR. Paul's knowledge, experience and strategic vision has propelled FlexMR into the forefront of industry through the innovative InsightHub, accompanying services and programmes, and the new Customer Salience Summit.
In the past year, under Paul's direction, the firm has embedded transformative artificial intelligence into the InsightHub, in the form of TextMR and PromptAI; alongside a new survey user interface, Conversational Surveys, and a new Consumer Duty programme. Paul has created a culture of collaboration, Customer Salience and client closeness, as well as presented at numerous events and conferences in the past year alone and with clients, showcasing the capabilities and results of research undertaken on FlexMR's InsightHub platform.
Paul's dedication to FlexMR and the wider industries has not gone unnoticed, and has been recognised by a prestigious judging panel who have named Paul one of the top 250 influential thought leaders and strategists in market research and satellite industries who are committed to shaping the future of the insights industry.
To celebrate the pioneers and innovators, the Insight250 was launched in 2021. It is a ‘who’s who’ of academic, enterprise, agency, technology, consulting and media leaders in research and insights.
The selection process is conducted with ESOMAR, a premier global market research association, and reviews a spectrum of candidate dimensions, including professional experience, academic accomplishments, published research, thought leadership, industry involvement, insight innovations and sector accolades, among others.
